Petahya ( _he. פְּ‏תָ‏חְיָ‏ה) is a moshav in central Israel. Located in the Shephelah near Mazkeret Batya, it falls under the jurisdiction of Gezer Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 729.

The moshav was founded in 1951 on the land of the abandoned Arab village of al-Na'ani, whose residents had fled to the Ramallah area, Jerusalem and Jordan during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. Initially named Gezer 10, its founders were immigrants from Tunisia. They were later joined by immigrants from Algeria and India. Today most of its residents work in vineyards.
